As long as you follow the recommendations, you can have a good
experience. If you buy memory from PriceWatch.com (as I once did, never
again), you get what you pay for.
Your reward is excellent performance and stability if you do it right.
The P4's have similar issues in terms of memory sensitivity. They are
less sensitive on PS issues. They are more sensitive on the cooling
issues (though they have built in protection which automatically drops
performance if they get too hot).
